Inquiry-based course experiences provide a scalable and equitable way to engage students in research. In this study, we describe how we introduced inquiry-based experiences to ten lower-division and upper-division courses across the biology curriculum at a regionally comprehensive public university serving the diverse population in a major metropolitan area. Student survey data suggest this redesign effectively developed students' scientific skills and nurtured their sense of belonging. This project illustrates how inquiry-based experiences can be implemented sustainably across institutional context.
